to me, but he had some other really juicy bits that made me fall down laughing. Great choice, and great list. ]]></description>

OK, did you really expect anyone else?
<br>
<br>
Gollum is awesome. Although Sauron is the evil behind everything that is going on, Gollum is the true villain of the series. Despite being rarely shown in the
first movie, Gollum (or Smeagol if you will) becomes a central force in the next two. Craving... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Aragorn is the man.  There are like 5 women in all of Middle Earth, and at least 2 of them want him.  It would be interesting to see who would win in a fight,
he or Gandalf.  Gandalf may be old, but he&#39;s got all those wizard-like superpowers (and he defeated the Balrog).  Speaking of which, I am disappointed the
Balrog didn&#39;t make this list, but otherwise this has been a good ranking.

There is not really any denying the awesomeness that is Aragorn.
<br>
<br>
There are a lot of main characters, but I always found Aragorn to be the main focus of the three movies. There is a lot to love about him. He is a great guy
who is very kind and caring when he is with his friends. However, in battle he turns it... ]]></description>

As someone who has read the books and is a fan of the movies, they both have their strengths and weaknesses. Stephen King wrote an essay in this week&#39;s
Entertainment Weekly though where he said if you put Sauron and Darth Vader in a battle against each other, though (of course this is based on the book&#39;s
details of how evil Sauron is), Darth would be p*whipped in about 30 seconds. You should read the books, and then if you&#39;re brave enough take on <em>the... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Tolkien&#39;s writing always were very male-centric (he could&#39; ve been an editor for Survivor!), but he had an unhappy marriage, so maybe it was
therapeutic for him to create a world where women were practically invisible.

Anyways, Gandalf if probably my favorite of the good guys.  He can really kick some ass for an old dude, heh.

Yeah, I had to force myself to read the Hobbit. The first chapter was hilarious with all the dwarfs bugging Bilbo, but then no female characters just a bunch
of male characters walking around through the rest of the book. So I haven&#39;t read LOTR. Watching the movies all I could think of is um... that is not
Middle Earth... it&#39;s just home. (New Zealand)
